As I replied to Gracey, it's because there are people who fight tooth and nail, who have no reason to keep on trying, to get one more moment in this world, even though they have absolutely nothing going for them and the world seems to try and kill them. Yet they fight on and try to survive.
That's why suicide is cowardly.
In a broad, general sense, of course. It needs to be looked at on a case-by-case basis.
Because there are people who live in this world, with nothing, no money, no family, no friends, no home, nothing, or live with extreme pain or suffering and they fight tooth and nail for every breath of life and keep on fighting until their bodies give out.
That being said, yeah, I'm terrified of committing suicide, but that's because I'm afraid to die, not because of me being brave.
More like they're trying to keep this from happening if they did what normally happened...
Future Employer: Huh, you're a sex offender? Current Teen: It wasn't my fault! I... Future Employer: Says here that you were charged with having child pornography. Current Teen: I was fifteen! It was pictures of myself and my friends and... Future Employer: We have no room in this establishment for disgusting deviants such as yourself.
I trust that the government will take a tragedy and use it to do horrible things. I trust that the government will do all that it can to destroy people's rights if given the opportunity. I trust that the government is bought out by big money. I trust that the elections are rigged to keep the status quo in place by buying out the media.
So, really, I do trust the government.
About as far as I can throw the Washington Monument.

And the positives and negatives in this case...
For the government the positives is all that delicious data in one spot and the negatives are privacy and anonymity.

Re:
There is no reason to do this to porn stars.
Pornography, sex and prostitutes have pre-dated and outlasted every society that has ever existed.
Whether you like porn or not doesn't matter, this is going way too far.
